PS3 goes GOLD!
« on: July 21, 2006, 11:19:21 PM »

The Gist of the Link:

Sources now say that the PS3 is under production, with 4 million units expected in the first consignment.  Perhaps Sony doesn\'t want to over-limit the supply at launch (5 million 360s shipped to date), but in any event, it\'s 4 million to start, and 200k per month thereafter.

And further Q/A goodness for confirmation:
Quote
Q4. What is the initial launch quantity for PS3 ?
A4. 2 million units will be shipped worldwide at the launch timing (for the first 3 weeks), cumulative 4 million units by the end of December and cumulative 6 million by the end of March 2007 (we do not disclose the breakdown by region).

That\'s double what they originally projected.

Rumor has it Wii has been rolling since earlier in the summer as well.

It\'s gonna be a fun holiday season.

^^^^

And this has anything to do with the PS3 going gold how?


Back on topic...Hopefully there isn\'t a massive shortage ala PS2/Xbox360 come christmas.  At least one of my friends better pick one up so I can see how it looks.

those better not be real screenshots.

you even get to look like a dumbass while you play in 1994 visuals.

Yes, Wii cannot make graphics as powerful as PS3 or Xbox 360. 2004 called, they want their news back. ;]

Regardless, the control methods shown in those pics have me slightly interested in the game as opposed to not-at-all interested in a PS3 version. To each his own.

Who will buy PS3 at launch !? I\'m pretty sure I won\'t...

For me, PS3 will go Gold when the PS3 games I actually want are in store ; and they\'re certainly no launchgames.

If you are going to try and insult, do it right. Don\'t pull stuff out of your ass, like this.

As for Madden on the Wii - I couldn\'t care less. None of the next generation football titles from EA have delivered. Infact, they have all been stripped down compared to the previous generations.


Back on topic, who cares? It\'s in production - whoopie.
Same applies to the Wii. Announce some launch games, then maybe I\'ll care.
